Jason's Proportion post

Jasonp2's Proportion postPart 1Rate-Comapres 2 numbers measured un different units e.g. if if 10 hot dogs cos 15 dollars how much will 1 costRatio-A ratio shows the size of two or more values e.g. 1:8Proportion-Compares The relation between things e.g. size quantity numberPart 2- a) it takes 5 hours to travel 360 kris about 72km 1hB) Emma saves 28 cents per every dollar she makes she made 75$ last week how much did she save 21 $Part 3 - what are 3 ways you can prove that equivalent fractions are true1 horizontally 2 vertically and cross multiplication

Part 5 no it is not fair at all because they both stole but the homeless man only stole 100 dollars compared to 3 billion so that man that stole the 3 billion should get 15 yearswhat i know about porportion is that the homeless man is 54 so he gets 15 how old will he be when he gets out so i did this 54 +15 =69 so he might not be alive when he is out the year will be 2027compared to the other guys is 55 and he get 44 months so that thats roughly 4 years so when he gets out he will be 59 so the other guy almost gets 10 more years than thing guyI made this choice because even though they both did criminal activities one stole 3billion compared to 100 so thats not fair at allif i was the judge i would have gave the homeless man 6 months because he did steal and the other guy 44 years
